In mathematics, the Peano–Jordan measure (also known as the Jordan content) is an extension of the notion of size (length, area, volume) to shapes more complicated than, for example, a triangle, disk, or parallelepiped. It turns out that for a set to have Jordan measure it should be well-behaved in a certain
Pressure due to direct impact of a strong breeze (~28 mph or 45 km/h) [27] [28] [31] 120 Pa Pressure from the weight of a U.S. quarter lying flat [32] [33] 133 Pa 1 torr ≈ 1 mmHg [34] ±200 Pa ~140 dB: Threshold of pain pressure level for sound where prolonged exposure may lead to hearing loss [citation needed] ±300 Pa ±0.043 psi
The interchangeability of pressure and wind allows for the two to be used to give equivalencies for the public. [7] Pressure-wind relations can be used when information is incomplete, forcing forecasters to rely on the Dvorak Technique. [6] Some storms may have particularly high or low pressures that do not match with their wind speed.

Peano was motivated by Georg Cantor's earlier counterintuitive result that the infinite number of points in a unit interval is the same cardinality as the infinite number of points in any finite-dimensional manifold, such as the unit square. The problem Peano solved was whether such a mapping could be continuous; i.e., a curve that fills a space.
Peano's curve is a surjective, continuous function from the unit interval onto the unit square, however it is not injective. Peano was motivated by an earlier result of Georg Cantor that these two sets have the same cardinality. Because of this example, some authors use the phrase "Peano curve" to refer more generally to any space-filling curve ...
"Your blood pressure is supposed to be under 140 over 90, optimally closer to 120 over 80."
Many techniques have been developed for the measurement of pressure and vacuum. Instruments used to measure and display pressure mechanically are called pressure gauges, vacuum gauges or compound gauges (vacuum & pressure). The widely used Bourdon gauge is a mechanical device, which both measures and indicates and is probably the best known ...
